The late fifth century BC was the golden age of ancient Athens. Under the leadership of the renowned soldier-statesman Perikles, Athenians began rebuilding the Akropolis, where they created the still awe-inspiring Parthenon. Athenians also reached a zenith of artistic achievement in sculpture, vase painting, and architecture, which provided continuing inspiration for many succeeding generations. The specially commissioned essays in this volume offer a fresh, innovative panorama of the art, architecture, history, culture, and influence of Periklean Athens. Written by leading experts in the field, the articles cover a wide range of topics, including: An evaluation of Perikles' military leadership during the early stages of the Peloponnesian War. Iconographical and iconological studies of vase paintings, wall paintings, and sculpture. Explorations of the Parthenon and other monuments of the Athenian Akropolis. The legacy of Periklean Athens and its influence upon later art. Assessments of the modern reception of the Akropolis. As a whole, this collection of essays proves that even a well-explored field such as Periklean Athens can yield new treasures when mined by perceptive and seasoned investigators.

"This book features the first comprehensive interdisciplinary study of the mosaics from Antioch, one of the four capitals of the Roman and Early Christian world. A follow-up to Antioch: The Lost Ancient City by Dr. Kondoleon, this volume includes the latest scholarly and scientific discoveries that grew out of the Antioch exhibition. For the first time, the research of art historians and archaeologists is combined with that of conservators and scientists to shed new light on mosaic and glass workshops." "The authors take an in-depth look at the Antioch excavations, which yielded a range of mosaics, sculpture, glass- and metalwork spanning four centuries. They also explore the development of mosaic conservation in museums since the 1930s. Included are recent findings on mosaic materials, artistic techniques, glassmaking technology, stone quarries, workshops, trade, and patronage."--BOOK JACKET.

Dans ce livre sur l'acte de naissance de l'esthétique occidentale, Jean-Christophe Bailly montre comment furent dégagées en Grèce ancienne les conditions d'avènement de l'image, au sens que nous donnons toujours à ce mot. Entre les actes de représentation (peinture, sculpture, danse, théâtre, écriture) et les espaces par lesquels la cité acquiert sa forme, la relation est directe : c'est le même mouvement qui s'accoutume au vide de l'espace et qui y dispose des figures. On retrouve la même logique d'évidement et les mêmes régimes d'intervalle dans l'espace politique de la cité et dans les représentations. Le " champ mimétique " est le nom ici donné à cette unité, où peut se lire aussi un formidable travail de rangement du monde. En tressant ensemble philosophie et histoire de l'art, tout au long d'un voyage enthousiaste et rigoureux, Jean-Christophe Bailly ne nous fait remonter aux sources que pour mieux redescendre jusqu'à notre actualité et à ce paradoxe selon lequel nous serions à la fois dans une civilisation de l'image et en train de sortir de l'âge de la représentation.(quatrième de couverture)
